Murs Tickets - The Music

Murs is known for his dark and harrowing lyrics. He stands out from much of the hip hop crowd because instead of glorifying the gangster lifestyle, he often raps about just how heartbreaking and destructive it can be. This is well evidenced in Walk Like A Man, from Murs 3:16, which details the story of a man who gets avenges the death of his friend. Murs is unapologetic as he describes first the reason for the scene: But as I did I heard two shots, I turned to my right and I see my dude drop. Time stopped, couldn't believe what I seen I was struck by reality when the two girls screamed, and later, taking revenge: Then I split his face with the Glock right before he could reply, he cried as I pressed the heat against his cheek. Then I squeeze two times for the homie rest in peace. Make sure to get your Murs tickets so you can experience the intensity live.
